Konectbus Update

SteveW has contacted me with the news that Konect is introducing major changes to its services in November

As already reported elsewhere, service 2/2A between Norwich and Sheringham/Holt are to be axed but there are more reductions planned

The 5, which runs between Norwich and Costessey, is being scrapped and is being replaced by the 53 which will run between Wroxham and Costessey. This means that the Norwich - Tuckswood section of the 53 is being scrapped. Also severely cut are the 6A/X6 services between Norwich and Attleborough, with the 6A scrapped and a reduced service on the X6.

As yet Steve has no idea why these services are going but he notes that all the routes affected are mirrored in some part by other operators - perhaps a new Go-Ahead policy? This also raises the question of where the surplus vehicles will be going!
